Sarah Palin shares nothing but a chromosome with Hillary Clinton. She is Phyllis Schlafly, only younger.
Here's the good news: Women have become so politically powerful that even the anti-feminist right wing -- the folks with a headlock on the Republican Party -- are trying to appease the gender gap with a first-ever female vice president. We owe this to women -- and to many men too -- who have picketed, gone on hunger strikes or confronted violence at the polls so women can vote. We owe it to Shirley Chisholm, who first took the "white-male-only" sign off the White House, and to Hillary Rodham Clinton, who hung in there through ridicule and misogyny to win 18 million votes.
Palin has been honest about what she doesn't know. When asked last month about the vice presidency, she said, "I still can't answer that question until someone answers for me: What is it exactly that the VP does every day?" When asked about Iraq, she said, "I haven't really focused much on the war in Iraq."
So far, the major new McCain supporter that Palin has attracted is James Dobson of Focus on the Family. Of course, for Dobson, "women are merely waiting for their husbands to assume leadership," so he may be voting for Palin's husband.
And American women, who suffer more because of having two full-time jobs than from any other single injustice, finally have support on a national stage from male leaders who know that women can't be equal outside the home until men are equal in it. Barack Obama and Joe Biden are campaigning on their belief that men should be, can be and want to be at home for their children.
This could be huge.

That's very true.
Sarah clearly rose to the top on her own talent and effort, not by piggybacking on her husband's career, as the irrelevant Rodham woman did (the former First Lady runs for President? what are we, a decadent European monarchy?).
As did Phyliss Schlafly, a well known and accomplished attorney and author who created her own success.
Hillary NoBody isn't qualified to be a housekeeper in these women's houses.
And long before Gloria Steinem was caught sleeping with basketball players, the Republican party was promoting and voting for strong, accomplished women, while the Dims were pushing sleazy back room hack jobs like their current VP pick, the odious Mr. Biden, who reminds me of Gene Hackman as Lex Luthor.
NEVER, and I mean never, use the name "Gloria Steinem" and the word "fish" together in the same sentence. Please.
The dinosaur pimps of race and gender are falling into the tap pits of irrelevancy. In a hundred years someone with dig up their skeletons and wonder why they died with heads up their asses.
And American women, who suffer more because of having two full-time jobs than from any other single injustice...
WTH is she saying with that statement???
Why do American women work 2 full time jobs? 80 hours paid work a week?
Or does she mean women working a full time paid job and then also working as a homemaker?
How is this different from other countries? What makes it American women specifically?
And if I am a single male living in America, don't I TOO work two full time jobs then? Working in an office by day and maintaining my home, laundry, bills, cooking, dishes, etc. outside of the office?
What a stupid illogical gripe she is trying to make. She was much funnier when she used to work for Harvey Kurtzman (who created Little Annie Fanny) at Help Magazine.
Oh well, her and wrinkled old Traitor Jane Funda have been displaced and they don't like.
These two..............................
Steinham’s chromosome reference is undoubtedly a not so subtle attempt to slap at Palin’s memorable quote on her new son’s existence: “Trig is short one chromosome, so what”. I got a lump in my throat when I heard that.
You do know I was referencing a famous line of hers: A WOMAN NEEDS A MAN LIKE A FISH NEEDS A BICYCLE!
Yes and feminist/lesbian talk show host Tammy Bruce pretty much reburied her on her show today. She’s fired up for Sarah.
I love Sarah and I love Tammy and again would welcome any offers at a conversion attempt.:-)
The MSM couldn’t dig up any better fossils than Steinem? Didn’t she recently get married, several years after saying something like “a woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle”? The guy that married her is a complete idiot, and so is anyone who listens to her. Look at the depths the MSM is falling.

Here’s how I’ve been bumping Palin/Obama threads.
Sung to the tune of “Oh! Susanna, don’t you cry for me.”
“Oh, no Bama, please don’t lie to me... for I’m off to Free Republic with a laptop on my knee.”
I come from Minnesota with my laptop on my knee;
I’m goin’ to Free Republic my true love for to see.
It rained all night the day I left,
the weather it was dry;
The sun so hot I froze to death,
Obama don’t you lie.
Oh! No Bama, don’t you lie to me;
I come from Minnesota,
with my laptop on my knee.
I had a dream the other night,
When everything was still;
I thought I saw Obama dear,
A-coming for The Hill.
The smearing lie was in Duluth,
The tear was in his eye,
Said I, I’m coming for the truth
Obama don’t you lie.
Oh! No Bama, don’t you lie to me;
I’m off to Free Republic,
with my laptop on my knee.
I fight in my pajamas,
It’s plain for all to see.
I aim to be the next Buckhead;
The media all hate me.
I fell in love with Sarah
When my sister bit a moose.
The Guvnor’s family ate it up
And then they set it loose.
Oh! No Bama, don’t you lie to me;
I’m off to Free Republic,
with my laptop on my knee.
She loves her sons, she likes her guns,
and Trigonometry.
The media will jump the shark
When Juan makes history.
Well, JimRob knows she’ll pave the trolls
So controversially,
And Berg will knock Obama down
With friends of Hillary.
Oh! No Bama, don’t you lie to me;
I’m off to Free Republic with a laptop on my knee.
I soon will be in Hawaii,
And then I’ll look all ‘round,
And when I find his birth record,
I’ll fall upon the ground.
But if I do not find it,
This Freeper’ll surely die,
And when I’m dead and buried,
Obama don’t you lie.
Oh! No Bama, don’t you cry for me;
I’m off to Free Republic with a laptop on my knee

Yes but I couldn't pass up the chauvinistic opportunity.
Does it get any better than this!!??? Gov. Palin is the woman Gloria Steinem wanted to be back when she and the other 3 homely . . . . . er, “ladies” burned their bras and began women’s liberation.
The left is just filled with savagery because they know that the WH they thought was theirs for the taking is gone. As the result of Obama, they managed to snatch what they were certain was a sure thing and turn it into a major defeat.
Hate to admit it, but you gotta hand it to McCain - his political experience drove him to make a politically astute choice and outmaneuver the Obamessiah.
In the meantime, Gloria Wannabee looked in the mirror and saw Gov. Palin - and couldn’t stand the image of a succesful woman looking back at her . . . . . a successful woman who did it all on her own and without government entitlements. Gloria should be so successful!!
There is not enough popcorn in the world to keep us comfortable for the rest of this dog ‘n pony show.
DEMOCRAT MESSAGE TO WOMEN: MARRIED WOMEN WITH A CAREER AND CHILDREN NEED NOT APPLY
A married woman need not apply...
A woman with children need not apply...
A woman with a cereer need not apply...
A woman with a pregnant 17 year old daughter need not apply...
A woman with with a special needs child need not apply...
A woman with a son in the military need not apply...
A woman who has shown that she can balance career and marriage need not apply...
What it all REALLY comes down to is that CONSERVATIVE women... need not appy even if you do all the things the femiNAZI’s say you should be able to do.... you need not apply.
All that garbage about women can balance jobs and careers is garbage to the femiNAZI’s. It is and has always been about politics... liberal politics, not really women’s issues. Liberal women’s politics.
Clear as a bell for all to see...
